α-branched amines are common structural motifs in functional materials, pharmaceuticals, and chiral catalysts. Therefore, developing efficient methods for preparing compounds with these privileged scaffolds is an important endeavor in synthetic chemistry. Herein, we describe an atom-economical, modular method for a nickel-catalyzed enantioselective α-alkenylation of readily available linear N-sulfonyl amines
A rhodium-catalyzed hydroformylation of alkynes with formic acid was developed. The method provides α,β-unsaturated aldehydes in high yield and E-selectivity without the need to handle toxic CO gas.

the synthesis of unsaturated thioesters. A robust ligand-controlled regioselective thiocarbonylation of alkynes is developed. Utilizing boronic acid and 5-chlorosalicylic acid as the acid additive to in situ form 5-chloroborosalicylic acid (5-Cl-BSA), and bis(2-diphenylphosphinophenyl)ether (DPEphos) as the ligand, linear α,β-unsaturated thioesters were produced in a straightforward manner.

B–H functionalization has been achieved. Under the assistance of a bidentate directing group, Cu-catalyzed [4+2] annulation of carboranyl amides with internal alkynes affords unprecedented C,B-substituted carborane-fused-pyridone derivatives, whereas the use of terminal alkynes leads to B–H/C(sp)–H dehydrocoupling products. The isolation and structural identification of a notably stable Cu(I) intermediate

rhodium(III)‐catalyzed C−H activation of anilines bearing an N‐isoquinolyl directing group for oxidative [3+2] annulation with four classes of internal alkynes, leading to atroposelective indolesynthesis via dynamic kinetic annulation with C‐N reductive elimination constituting the stereo‐determining step. This reaction proceeds under mild conditions with high regio‐ and enantioselectivity and functional
